Aftermath painted by a German artist.
Today is the 93rd anniversary of Jallianwala Bagh incident when British army killed and wounded thousands of unarmed people in Amritsar.

On 13th April 1919, Brigadier-General Reginald E.H. Dyer ordered a mass execution style attack on a peaceful congregation to quell the people’s right to gather and to voice their concerns. Official sources estimate the fatalities at 379 with 1100 wounded but the Indian National Congress calculates the number of dead at 1000 and the causalities at 1500.
